Grants and Contributions:
Title:
Application of Acoustic Zoom's Experimental Non-Specular Seismic Imaging Technique for Defining Spatial Distribution of Discontinuities and Localized Features for Better Assessment of Ground Risks and Improved Safety in Mining Operations
Agreement Number:
908512
Agreement Value:
$260,000.00
Agreement Date:
Jun 4, 2018 - Mar 15, 2019
Description:
Acoustic Zoom Inc., will be adapting its technology to deploy it inside an existing underground mining room in the Rocanville mine in Saskatchewan. This would entail employing a novel upward-looking seismic source coupled to the roof of the mine and placing receivers throughout the workings to create the antenna grouping along with advancements in signal processing protocols. The intent is to specifically demonstrate to the Potash Mining sector, that the AZ technology can characterize the "Winnipegosis" consolidation formation and to delineate the presence of various complex, poorly defined, mound anomalies which pose a geo-risk to safe mining activities.
